May 20, 2015 10:56

The Congress party on Wednesday said the ongoing tussle between Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung will shatter the morale of the civil service officers and affect administration.

"The Governor's office and Chief Minister's officer are responsible for this ruckus. This is totally unnecessary, there is no issue involved in this. After the Chief Secretary appointment which was controversial, the morale of the officers of the civil service will be completely shattered and that will affect the administration. Both the senior people should understand that," Congress leader P.C. Chacko said.
